Allow me to introduce myself!
Hello everyone! I've heard about the Rational Response Squad and thought I would join up! As you can see from my name, I live in Texas, specifically Ft. Worth. I was a member of WWGHA forum (Why Won't God Heal Amputees) and am currently a member of the Atheist Think Tank (new forum). I was born and raised Catholic, but have been atheist for the last 4 years and prior to that, I was agnostic (or rather indifferent to religion) for many years.
I'm really disgusted with the direction the U.S. is going. It seems that rather than making progress, religion - Christianity specifically- is taking this country back to the dark ages. It seems funny to me that as an atheist, I'm looked at like I'm crazy for not believing in god, but it's okay that religious folks can worship and talk to some sky daddy and that's perfectly fine. I just don't get it!
I guess that's about it for now. Have a wonderful evening!

Welcome to the forums, TexAtheist. You'll find a lot to interest you here, some good debates, good people and tons of information on damn near anything. If something hasn't been written, then there's someone who's fluent on the subject.
